He knows because it's been written about a million times. Ray Lewis' role in the 2000 murder investigation is well documented. He originally lied to the cops about being there and was arrested and charged with first-degree murder. During the trial, he testified to the actual events on the night and his charges were brought down to obstruction of justice.
I believe locket is correct that his friends were acquitted

It's actually a very common stereotype. Second only to the black people loving fried chicken stereotype.

And we're gonna have to disagree on why the NFL is doing this. They say it's because of violence against women, but they don't give a fluff about that. Nor do they care about drunk driving, or drug use, or any other problem that the players have. I think it's entirely about the league trying to save face and protect their product. Professional sports are always willing to do just enough that people will stop their complaining.

This is a little tangent, but I think it's the same reason that professional sports have taken such a weakass stance on PEDs. Big plays, big stats, and big wins = more fans and more money. Players taking PEDs actually alters the outcomes of games..whether it's a pitcher somehow going from mediocrity to 20 wins and 250 strikeouts, or football players getting 20 sacks or 15 touchdowns, or batters miraculously jumping to 40 home runs a year..these things can have big impacts on the outcomes but major league sports don't do nearly enough to address it because PED use actually improves their product.

It's caught media attention in the past 10 years or so, and because of that the MLB or NFL will dish out a suspension here or there to make it look like they're addressing the issue. Yet players openly say that it's been going on for a long long time and that there are plenty of people using PEDs. But fans love no hitters, they love sacks and touchdowns, and they definitely love home runs.

I think that since we're discussing the actions of a black player, he was talking about your reference to a common stereotype:

Sadly, the PR outlook pretty much always drives these decisions. I agree that it would be nice for the league to try to help players in bad situations, but why would they bother? It's just extra work for them. I'm not saying that there is no help available, I know that the NFL does have a small assistance program, but in large part the owners and the NFL are just in it to make money.
When they cut a player, there will be 50 guys standing in line to take his spot. I'm sure we all realize that there is certainly no lack of talented athletes trying to make it to the NFL. So why bother to wasting resources on rehabilitation? Granted that Ray Rice is a talented RB and the person that replaces him won't be at the same level, but the Baltimore Ravens starting a lower caliber RB won't hurt their ticket sales one bit. When a player screws up and makes the NFL product look bad in any way, they can remove the source of the problem and very easily move on.

Interesting conceptualization. Maybe a few parts that could need to be refined if they're looking to continue this study long-term. Nevertheless good on you L. James and DARPA

This is off topic, but your comment about 16-yo in a Ferrari reminded me of a story I read a while back.. Any time I hear about rich teenagers driving recklessly I think of this story.

Such a shame. But also such a display of stupidity..
That instructor wasn't positioned very well. And someone that supposedly has many years of experience should have recognized that a f***ing NINE YEAR OLD, probably can't handle an automatic weapon.

Those parents are completely retarded.. How stupid do you have to be to take your kid to a range and put a goddamn uzi in their hands. I understand people like to share the hobby with their kids, give them some lessons using hunting rifles, etc. But what possible reason is there to put a F***ing UZI in your nine year old kid's hand?? WTF is your daughter gonna be doing with an uzi. Sure as hell can't hunt with it.. If she has to protect herself, is she gonna pull an uzi out of her purse??

Idiots..

If Tebow beats the patriots next week, I think people will lose their minds

Or EE should take a page from the NCAA.
When they're streaming games during March Madness, they have a "boss button", which minimizes everything, mutes the game and switches over to excel

:)

I didn't have to build a new PC just to play the game. My old PC could have run the game just fine. I just like games to look uber sexy when I play them.
